I’ve been working with Teri Nash at Heartbeat Dance Academy since 2007. It’s always amazing how she comes up with fresh ideas for each season’s spring dance recitals. This year they performed at the Carlmont Performing Arts Center, a wonderful venue for light and sound. I shot three performances with two HD cameras to make DVDs and Blu-Ray discs for the families. I received a solid sound feed from the house audio board. Check the video montage we created from the Saturday night teen show of Once Upon a Time. Great music, great dance.

This was my second year working with Angela Holmes, the brilliant Owner/Artistic Director, who has grown what was Millbrae Dance Academy into the West Coast Dance Conservatory.

She put on four performances this year and I shot each with two cameras and an audio feed from the house sound board. AVS made DVDs and BluRay discs for each of the performances with titles and chapter markers to easily click forward and backward.

All performances were shot at the Bayside Performing Arts Center where Ron Ho provided his usual theatre support with professional lighting and sound.

One of my joys is making a montage set to music of the entire performance so each dance gets a share of the limelight. Angela collaborated, with her keen eye, to create a very fun look at the groups in each performance. Let Justin Timberlake’s theme music take you away.
